Kyrie Irving showed off his ball-handling finesse with a through-the-legs assist as the Boston Celtics rolled to a 107-99 victory over the Miami Heat.
Irving connected on 11 of his 19 shots as he recorded a 26-point, 10-assist double-double. His highlight of the night came with 10:15 remaining in the third quarter with the Celtics leading 56-50.
Heat forward Josh Richardson fumbled away possession in Boston's half and Irving took full advantage, driving up the right wing before heading towards the Heat basket.
With the Miami defense collapsing to thwart his progress, Irving produced a slick through-the-legs dish to team-mate Marcus Smart who was open in the corner and connected to give the Celtics a nine-point lead.
